Israeli political parties submitted final Knesset election slates with no last-minute mergers, as Eisenkot, Bennett, Ben Gvir and Winter filed independent lists, leaving the political landscape largely unchanged ahead of Likud's expected Tuesday submission. Smotrich criticized Winter's list, while broader optimism was reported among Jewish voters regarding the political landscape. By Tuesday, 38 parties had officially registered their slates, ranging from Likud to the Joint List. Reports noted a shortage of women candidates in realistic list positions across major parties, Shas added an IDF reservist to its slate, Religious Zionism's list saw the Sukkot faction slide down, and Blue and White made a last-ditch effort to secure its survival with a competitive slate.
